2007 International 7600 recalls 6
Recall repairs are free. Your dealer fixes them whether or not you bought the car there - check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if yours is done. What to do
- The problem
- On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks built with cummins ism c876 engines, the electronic control module fails to recognize inputs of the vehicle electronic control unit or from a driver actuated dash switch thereby increasing the risk of unintended (or unexpected) elevated exhaust temperatures.
- The risk
- While this condition does not involve a risk of fire in the vehicle itself, it could present a fire hazard in a situation where the vehicle's exhaust is in close proximity to materials or substances that can melt, burn, or explode.
- The fix
- Cummins, in conjunction with international, will conduct the remedy campaign. Cummins will install new ecm software. Owners can contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or international at 1-800-448-7825.
- The problem
- On certain 6x4 or 6x6 trucks with air brakes or tractors with air brakes and equipped with bendix sr-7 spring brake modulating valves, the internal rubber check valve may leak causing a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after the operator pulls the dash valve button.
- The risk
- This could delay or failure in applying the parking brakes which could result in a vehicle roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
- The fix
- International is working with bendix to repair these vehicles (please see 07e-037). Bendix will install a check valve repair kit for the affected sr-7 spring brake modulating valve free of charge. The recall began on september 28, 2007. Owners may contact bendix at 440-329-9000 and international at 1-800-448-7825.
- The problem
- On certain trucks equipped with davco fuel pro 382 heated fuel filters, when the key is in the 'on' position, the pre-heater, located in the fuel filter base, is energized.
- The risk
- If this pre-heater is energized while maintenance is being performed on the fuel filter, diesel fuel could ignite within the filter housing. A fire within the fuel filter housing may spread possibly resulting in property damage or personal injury.
- The fix
- Dealers will inspect the fuel filters and fuel heaters and, if necessary, will replace the fuel heater. The recall began on may 11, 2007. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
- The problem
- On certain trucks equipped with chalmers rear suspensions, the adjustable torque rod end castings may be brittle. A brittle rod end casting may fracture without warning, causing the vehicles' rear axles to become misaligned.
- The risk
- This misalignment can cause the vehicle to lose directional stability at speeds that may result in a vehicle crash.
- The fix
- Dealers will inspect the vehicles to determine if they were manufactured with a suspect torque rod end. If a suspect torque rod end is found, the entire torque rod will be replaced. The recall began on october 6, 2006. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
- The problem
- On certain trucks equipped with sr-7 bendix brake valves, the check valve inside the valve cavity may not properly set, causing internal air leakage. If the check valve does not properly seat, the resulting leakage can cause a delay in the application of the spring brakes to park the vehicle after operator pulls the dash valve button.
- The risk
- The delayed parking brake application can occur without warning, leading to unintended vehicle rollaway increasing the risk of a crash.
- The fix
- Dealers will inspect the valves and replace it free of charge. The recall began on july 21, 2006. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
